HYPNOSIS:

This is a very versatile tool that can be useful for many different concerns. It involves going into a state of relaxed concentration, something you probably have done many times without even realizing it. For example, if you have ever gotten so caught up in a book or movie that you briefly lost a connection with being present in the moment, then you have experienced hypnosis that was self-induced. I can teach you how to use Self-Hypnosis to program your mind for whatever you decide will be helpful to you, whether that is becoming more confident, calmer, or reaching a goal.

I can also do more traditional Hypnosis, leading you through some exercises in which I give suggestions to you while you are in a state of relaxed concentration. One of the fears some people have about Hynosis, though, is that someone will have control over their mind and "plant" something in it that the person may not want. However, that is a sterotype that is not accurate. You will have control at all times, and every suggestion will match up with your goals and will be something we discuss beforehand.

Hypnosis can be adjunctive to medical treatments for such things as cancer treatment, labor and delivery, dental procedures, and as preparation for surgery. Hypnosis can be used to gain control over phobias, such as a fear of flying. It is also helpful in reaching your goals regarding such things as losing weight, or learning something new. It is very beneficial for enhancing your performance for job interviews, public speaking, performing arts, sports competition, and in a variety of other ways. Last, it can help you to take a "vacation" when you are stuck at home.

It is possible to make a hypnosis recording on your phone during a session, to help you make the changes or reach a goal that you are desiring, or even to just feel more calm and relaxed. You can then listen to this recording every day to help you develop at an unconscious level what you are consciously wanting to happen in your life.
